Warren has earned himself a reputation for being the class clown. His teacher, Ms. Washington, used to laugh at Warren's funny remarks but is now trying to discourage
 
  Warren's disruptive behavior by ignoring his jokes. In spite of Ms. Washington's attempts to ignore Warren, Warren sometimes tells a joke so funny that Ms. Washington laughs in spite of herself. Rather than decreasing his joke telling, Warren begins telling even more outrageous jokes. Inadvertently, Ms. Washington is modifying Warren's joke-telling behavior through:
 
   a. Shaping
   b. Extinction
   c. Punishment
   d. Negative reinforcement

  c. Mr. Caruso says, There are several critical steps involved in throwing a pot on the potter's wheel. Repeat these steps to yourself as you work so you don't forget them.
  d. As he demonstrates how to throw a baseball correctly, Mr. Duffy says, Now repeat these words as you throw the ball: back, up, thrust, release.
